Student experience 8 August 2022
My first year has given me so many opportunities, helped me grow, and guided me as a young woman in tech. From learning important tools of programming and understanding hardware intricacies, to joining societies and making friends I want to hold on forever – being in the Department of Computer Science expands my horizons in all sorts of surprising ways.

I’m very happy to say that collaboration is inclusive in every aspect of my learning.
